Rare occurences

Oh, What's occurrin'?
So you must be very surprised that this is my second post in two days. I guess I need a creative outlet for all the stuff going on in my life.

So the second rare occurrence today is that we got our 4th snow day in a fortnight. This was very welcome as I didn't want to sit in the library tragically for a second day in a row. It also meant that I could watch Role Models, a DVD that my friend Jess gave me for my birthday, and I got more time to study for my English exam in February, which I only found out the date for yesterday.

On another subject, look at what I've ordered off Amazon:



The pink iPod case is for my new baby :p as I've been very worried about it just swimming in the bottom of my school bag without any cushioning. I also bought the second Pokemon movie as I'm nerdy like that! I watched the first one over the holidays and I thought it was really good. At £2.98 who can argue with that price?

Music:
This is what I kind of most wanted to talk about today. I recently acquired 4 new songs that I wanted to share-

1. Nerdfighteria Island by Hank Green is the first song I got, and is a free download from http://www.dftba.com. It is the ultimate nerdy anthem and the line "I love smoothies made of meat!" makes me crack up everytime.
2. For Jo by RiddleTM is a really sweet song that makes me want to cry whenever I hear it. I first came across it on the podcast WZRD in the summer, and I wanted to show my sister how good it was. (Available on iTunes)
3. Aim for the Head by Tonks and the Aurors is a fun zombie rock song about the movie Shaun of the Dead, which is absolutely hilarious. Available on iTunes, this song would be brilliant for karaoke. Also available on iTunes.
4. Voldy Baby by The Parselmouths is a parody of the seasonal classic Santa Baby. There are some purely genius lines such as, "My floo network is open tonight!" which caused a lot of confusion amongst my friends on Facebook when I updated it as my status.

Giant squid of raaaaaaage!

Hey!

My life is really sucky right now. One of my best friends turned round and decided to do something really low before Christmas break which not only ruined the holidays for me, but spoilt my plans for my 16th birthday :(

School really sucked today. I didn't hang out with anyone, instead did a Rory Gilmore and spent my time reading in the library and doing german homework. I only explained what was going on to my mum yesterday, and when I told her I spent lunchtime alone she cried for me, which I really appreciated. <3

The snow days we had last week were very pleasing; on Thursday I got to work which means I earnt some money for the Yo! Sushi sale (yay!) it was good to have some extra time off school and Saturday was really fun as I went to Stinchcombe Hill golf course with a friend which was so covered in snow it looked like a ski centre. Awesome!!!
